The test above tests the child axis, correct? So it is not testing whether the current node is a node/pi/comment/text node, but whether the current node has such children. Right? So an empty element would pass this not() test; in other words, an empty element would be treated the same as an attribute or a namespace node. It seems like that is not the intent... more likely the intent was to test whether the current node is (not) an element or anything else besides an attribute or a namespace node? Also, the above test seems redundant, since anything matched by "processing-instruction()|comment()|text()" will also be matched by "node()". I'm not saying this to be critical, but because I believe the OP is a smart guy, and this area is a confusing one for me, I want to check my own comprehension. Thanks, Lars
